Are all asynchronous USB inputs similar?

Thanks Steve, Has anyone heard that Microsoft will ever make a USB Audio 2.0 Compliant driver?

Steve N.,

I looked at your Off Ramp and it said to use drivers for MAC and Windows, but my platform on the Auraliti PK90 is Linux. Do I need a driver for that, and how would I install it?

Koestner - Some Linux servers have put the edits in to support M2Tech/Empirical products, others haven't. I know that Sonore and Antipodes have these mods in them. I used Antipodes at last RMAF.

If your server does not put in these edits, then you may have to wait for Off-Ramp 6, which supports Linux without custom drivers.

I'm very happy to be off "the bus" and on the fast track with UPNP and DLNA over hardwired Ethernet. It doesn't do away entirely with PC platform hassles but I can deal with software and power supply optimization vs. the interaction of USB and MOBO hardware.

You will all see the transformation away from USB quickly.
We are in an industry where we will send back $50,000 amplifiers to have them rewired with another $20,000 of wire. We upgrade fuses and have our houses rewired. How, then, do we just accept a standard USB output on a consumer grade PC to be the be all and end all in computer audio? I know, we have Steve at Empiracle Audio with his 30 day money back guarantee, to make it all better. Me, I would rather not buy off the rack in a custom audio world.
